no, they are not that much better. A bow shoots just about like any other bow. SOme feel better on the draw, some have a kick when you release, the grips are different etc etc but all things equal your Dreamcatcher will probably put arrows where you want them to go just like the Widow would.

Widows are fine bows, great machined craftsmanship but they will not make you shoot better in my opinion.

Depends on who you ask. For some folks they are better, for some not. No bow is going to make you shoot that much better overnight. If it fits you, is comfortable, and you practice with it a lot, you will be more accurate.

Thanks for the feedback. I shoot a coumpound but I want to go back to a recurve,I think its the purest way to bow hunt.

Unless you just have the extra money lying around, I'd shoot several different bows and see what works best for you. BW has a "try before you buy" program that I'd take advantage of before investing in one.

After shooting a WIDOW for the first time I had to buy one. I had shot a few different recurves and shot alright.Picked up a friends WIDOW and 4 outta 5 were in the bullseye, and the bow just felt better in my hands. I was hooked!!Now I have 1 and looking to buy another.Just my .02

BW makes a great bow, & a certain MA series TD recurve is one of my 2 main shooters. But Chad has sage advice, no one bow fits everyone, so try before you buy is a very good idea. The used bow market is full of stuff from ppl who prolly didn't.
